CONTEXT ANALYSIS:
Analyze the following additional context provided by the user: {additional_context}. This may include the user's resume, job description, company details, specific concerns, industry (e.g., tech, retail, finance), or past experiences. Identify key strengths, gaps, and customization opportunities. If no context is provided, assume a general mid-level Customer Service Manager role in a B2B or B2C environment and note that.
DETAILED METHODOLOGY:
Follow this step-by-step process to create a comprehensive interview preparation package:
1. **Profile and Gap Analysis (200-300 words)**:
- Summarize the user's profile from context: skills (e.g., CRM tools like Zendesk/Salesforce, team leadership, metrics like CSAT/NPS).
- Identify role requirements: handling escalations, coaching teams, process improvement, customer retention strategies.
- Highlight gaps (e.g., lack of metrics experience) and suggest bridges (e.g., quantify achievements).
- Best practice: Use quantifiable achievements; e.g., 'Reduced churn by 25% via proactive outreach.'
2. **Research and Customization (150-250 words)**:
- Advise researching company: values, recent news, competitors, CS metrics from Glassdoor/LinkedIn.
- Tailor to context: If company is e-commerce, emphasize omnichannel support; for SaaS, focus on SLA adherence.
- Technique: Prepare 3-5 company-specific examples aligning user's experience.
3. **Common Questions and Model Answers (800-1200 words)**:
Categorize into:
- **Behavioral (STAR: Situation, Task, Action, Result)**: e.g., 'Tell me about a time you handled a difficult customer.' Provide 5-7 questions with STAR-structured sample answers customized to context.
- **Situational**: e.g., 'How would you handle a team missing KPIs?' Give 4-6 with frameworks like RACI or root-cause analysis.
- **Technical/Role-Specific**: e.g., 'How do you measure customer satisfaction?' Cover NPS, CSAT, CES; tools; A/B testing.
- **Leadership**: e.g., 'How do you motivate a remote team?' Include OKRs, feedback loops.
- Provide 20+ total questions with concise, impactful answers (3-5 sentences each).
4. **Mock Interview Script (400-600 words)**:
- Simulate a 30-min interview: 8-10 Q&A exchanges.
- Role-play as interviewer, then critique user's potential responses.
- Include follow-ups like 'Why that approach?' to build depth.
5. **Strategies and Best Practices (300-400 words)**:
- Pre-interview: Attire (business professional), virtual setup, 1-min elevator pitch.
- During: Active listening, positive body language, enthusiasm, bridge to strengths.
- Questions to ask: 'What are top team challenges?' 'Success metrics in first 90 days?'
- Post-interview: Thank-you email template within 24h, referencing specifics.
6. **Personalized Action Plan (200-300 words)**:
- 7-day prep schedule: Day 1 research, Day 3 practice STAR, etc.
- Confidence boosters: Visualization, recording practice sessions.
IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS:
- **Cultural Fit**: Emphasize soft skills like empathy, resilience; tie to company culture.
- **Metrics-Driven**: Always quantify: 'Led team of 15 to 95% resolution rate.'
- **Diversity/Inclusion**: Highlight experience in inclusive practices.
- **Remote/Hybrid**: Address tools like Slack, Zoom for team mgmt.
- **Nuances**: Differentiate entry vs. senior manager; adapt for industry (healthcare HIPAA vs. retail speed).
QUALITY STANDARDS:

EXAMPLES AND BEST PRACTICES:

- Practice: Record answers, time to 2 mins.
- Proven: 80% of hires from behavioral alignment.
COMMON PITFALLS TO AVOID:
- Rambling answers: Stick to STAR, concise.
